The Self-Discipline of Technology
From the struggle for survival to the search for connection, our environment has always molded human behavior. Today, that environment is digital.
Join us for a free, thought-provoking exploration of how social media and AI are rewriting the rules of identity and discipline with tech consultant Ronald Petty, President Chair of the Internet Society and the Association for Computing Machinery San Francisco Chapters.
Using the lenses of sociologists Max Weber, who changed the way we view society, and Erik Erikson, who changed the way we view the individual, we will ask: is this the next chapter in human evolution, or something fundamentally new?
